Fantastic eye catching in your face patio with it's own "grill before your eyes" BBQ and the type of beer selection things like The Three Brewers wish they had. That should be enough to get you in here.
Although, you should expect a line up if you're there on a weekend evening.
Throw in friendly staff, a bites selection catered for seamless integration with drinking and you're set!
I really enjoyed my visit here, even though the 3 of us chose to share a table with 2 other men over going upstairs where they have only "bar type" seating. It was a little weird to sit next to 2 strangers but neither group got in the other's way and we did choose that option anyway.
The beer menu does offer a good variety, and the ones I tried were good enough that I'd want to return here to try more of the beer offerings.
I would say that the bites menu is a little bit more pricey than I would like, we ordered the cheese platter, salami and bread which went great with our beers, I was tempted to try the "chicken heart" for just $4, but my two drinking companions were not quite fond of that. Maybe next time?
The BBQ sandwiches on the menu were unavailable as the BBQ does close relatively early but if you want snacks the menu does give you a decent choice to keep your beers company.
This ended up being a great start to our evening at Ossington and would recommend it take that spot on your list of an "Ossington Crawl" as well!
